My story

Misty was spotted in a large open field close to a freeway. She was seen hobbling. I attempted to go get her but the moment she spotted me, she ran with her back leg up. It almost seems impossible to catch her, so, we left food on that field every day for 3 weeks until we placed a trap. She was so emacited, so sad, so broken. She went into a foster home and that is where she flourished. She loves dogs, she is housetrained, she is learning commands quickly and she loves to cuddle. She turned out to be the perfect dog! She didn't need surgery for her leg, only steroid shots that will last a few weeks. She is ready to call a family hers.

More about this rescue

Mutts and Runts Rescue was founded in 2017 after seeing the numerous strays, neglected and often abused animals in Bakersfield. Being a transplant, Brandi Reed was taken by surprise of the overpopulation of dogs and knew she needed to do something. In her first year, 100 dogs were placed into loving homes.

Our rescue dogs typically consist of strays and severe medical cases. With limited fosters and volunteers, our long term goals are to improve our community outreach and financially assist other rescues when they take in cases we aren't able to physically assist.

Mutts and Runts has extended to serve Reno, Nevada. Reno, having a large dog friendly community, has the opposite problem of Bakersfield- they don’t have enough dogs for people willing to adopt. Together, we’re able to help more dogs get their happy ending with loving families, additional support of fosters, volunteers, fundraising, and access to a wonderful rehab facility.
